Gloucester & Sharpness Ship Canal by Sellars Bridge

Started in the late 1790's and not fully opened until 1827, the canal is much wider than most British Canals, many of which can only take narrowboats. The canal ends at Gloucester Docks, where there is a connection to the navigable section of the River Severn. SO7913 : Sellars Bridge, Gloucester & Sharpness Ship Canal.
